Old fart Newbie.

[Alecto22]

I'm a 69 year old returning to air guns after a 50 year absence! Got distracted by cycling motorcycling parenting ect. Finished parenting, and retired so now can get back to the air gun scene. Changed a little but love all the new technology', so like a grandad in a sweet shop am keen to get all the kit, but like the idea of building my own.
Any help in pointing me in the right direction will be greatly appreciated.
Retired to France ( South west) where air gun legislation is weird to say the least, so I have to be a little carefull!
Best to all

Hi John, welcome to the forum. Quite a few old timers make their way back to shooting once lifes distractions settle down a bit and stave off retired boredom.

Have a good read and see what appeals to you and if it suits your DIY skills. My one advice that most older people already know is to invest in quality main components - IE camera, lens ETC because it takes just as long to build a quality performer as a so-so one.

Welcome to the forum John

Great bunch of helpful blokes on here. As said, check out what's been done before, decide what suits you best and then ask away.

So you will have to move the clutch over to the right so you can draw and shoot your rifle, whilst riding the bike. ah you may already be there.
